    Cameras will not initalize

    It seems it was the POE injector! I tried a different unit and everything came up just fine for both cameras. Thank you for all the suggestions!

    Cameras will not initalize

    I've completed a factory reset on the 5231 already, no joy. I'll have to try your other suggestions. Is it possible that somehow the poe injector isn't giving these cams enough juice? I think I have another one around I can try.

    Cameras will not initalize

    Right now the computer is not networked at all. I set it to a static IP of 192.168.1.100. I'm connecting the cameras individually to change their IP to a VLAN setup to be used later. I'm using a POE injector to power the cams and am plugging them directly into the computer. I was able to...

    Is anyone having issues viewing both live views in GDMSS? I can see the image from the second channel, but not the first... It simply never loads while all my other cameras and channel 2 load just fine. Thoughts? Also having issues with the settings. I can set everything via the NVR...

    Hello, I just upgraded my Dahua NVR to the latest firmware posted a page back. Everything went fine however after the NVR rebooted two of my cameras will not come up. They both display "Invalid user name of password." These cameras have only ever been plugged into the NVR. I've not...

    Internet block/VPN access ASUS router

    Hello all, After reading the VPN thread I'm having an issue with setting up NVR/VPN access with my ASUS router. I have the VPN set up and functioning, I assume, correctly. I can connect via my phone however it will not let me access my Dahua NVR/cameras. I have the NVR blocked from the...

    Placement ideas?

    Trying to determine my best options for camera placement in the below pic. Cameras will be Dahua starlight. There is currently a camera mounted below the light on the right side of the garage - I think that location will remain. The biggest question is how to properly cover the front door and...
